Photographer's Credits

Agatha the cat

Mark Luinenberg, a professional photographer from Minneapolis, MN, donates his time and talent to photograph the animals that appear in our newsletters and on this site.

Mark has traveled the world, on assignment for National Geographic Adventure Magazine, GQ, ESPN Magazine and Health Magazine. Purina has sent him to cities across the U.S. to photograph pets and their owners. The Purina One ads appear in national magazines.

Above, Mark's portrait of Agatha, a tiny Persian who was admitted to Home for Life® after being abandoned and hit by a car.

The Home for Life® Newsletter is published twice a year, once in the summer and again in the winter. The cost of designing, printing, and mailing our newsletter is underwritten by a single generous donor, to whom we offer our deepest thanks!
